I am not a linguist so this isn’t the technical definition, but this is how I consider the different terms.
Examples:
There are 26 letters in the English.
You have to learn thousands of characters to write in Mandarin Chinese.
Script is rarely used when describing writing. It’s almost always used to mean the written text of a play/movie/show. The actor memorized her script.
There are many complex writing systems in the world. Some languages use writing systems with a simple alphabet whereas others have a writing system that’s made up of thousands of unique characters.
Details:
We use “letter” for the symbols in an alphabet (a, b, c, ... z Are all letters). A letter represents a sound, and rarely a word. Letters make up words.
Character is usually used to describe a symbol that represents a word. Chinese uses characters rather than letters.
Script is another word for handwriting. The opposite of typed/printed.
Writing system is a all of these things combined — the way spoken language is represented in writing. Some writing systems use an alphabet with only a few letters. Other writing systems are made up of thousands of characters. It could also include the direction of writing (like left to right, up and down, right to left).
